F'n rejection on a stupid little 25 cents hit. I wish there would be a rule in play about this. If you miss 2 or more then there is a good chance you are just random clicking but 1 wrong and the rest of the data good they should still approve you. Clicking on bubbles sometimes you miss the right bubble when you are clicking millions of bubbles on their studies. Also, these trick test questions to prove we are human are getting insane.

Sucks man.

Sometimes you'll hear that the advantage of mturk is that you are your own boss. That's a half-truth I guess. The other truth is that every requester you do hits for, no matter how dim-witted, intolerant, or demanding, is a boss with the ability to withhold pay, spike your reputation, and occasionally irritate the shit out of you.

Oh for sure. Been at this 3 years and some are brutal. Act like every one is scamming them lol. It's so easy to see if the data holds up too but they are lazy ass requesters.

I wish I could catch a case of SBD! Instead I work ft and turk "for fun" and extra pennies.

This guy is super nice and responsive, and ime willing to work with you. He manually approved my qual because I flunked the test initially by a few points. And he's been really good with small periodic bonuses and feedback.

i've done some other hits for him before so i wasn't terribly worried about what may happen with this one. the first email i got after qual suggested there was a better choice to ask but didn't tell me what for one of the sets and he would update after the written piece.. that's where i may have messed up but we shall see.
